  • Impact of delayed prosthetic treatment of velopharyngeal insufficiency on quality of life
    2011
    Co-Authors: Kaushal Kishor Agrawal, Balendra Pratap Singh, Pooran Chand, Chandra Bhusan Singh Patel
    Abstract:

    Palatopharyngeal dysfunction may take place when Palatopharyngeal valve is unable to perform its own closing due to a lack of tissue (Palatopharyngeal insufficiency) or lack of proper movement (Palatopharyngeal Incompetence). Palatopharyngeal insufficiency induces nasal regurgitation of liquids, hypernasal speech, nasal escape, disarticulations and impaired speech intelligibility. Prosthetic management of Palatopharyngeal insufficiency requires a close co-operation between an otolaryngologist and a speech pathologist. As a result, the patient can be socially and physically rehabilitated with the improved speech quality as well as prevention of leakage of liquids

  • fiberoptic tracheal intubation through a laryngeal mask airway in a child with treacher collins syndrome
    2003
    Co-Authors: Lisa A Muraika, Julius S Heyman, Yuri Shevchenko
    Abstract:

    Treacher Collins syndrome (TCS) is a rare inherited condition characterized by bilateral and symmetric abnormalities of structures within the first and second bronchial arches. The mechanism of inheritance is autosomal dominant with variable expressivity. Because of this variability in expression, some affected individuals exhibit virtually no overt clinical manifestations. However, most children with TCS present with the following classic facial features: down-sloping palpebral fissures, colobomata of the lower eyelid, scanty lower eyelashes, malar hypoplasia, and micro- or retrognathia. Cleft palate is present in up to 35% of patients and an additional 30-40% have congenital Palatopharyngeal Incompetence. Abnormalities of the ear are very common and vary from minor malformations to severe microtia and hearing loss. Hearing loss may be due to atresia of the auditory canals or ossicular malformation of the middle ear. Despite these many development abnormalities, TCS patients are usually of normal intelligence. We report the case of a 3 1/2-yr-old patient with TCS undergoing cleft palate repair and discuss fiberoptic intubation through a laryngeal mask airway using two endotracheal (ETT) tubes secured via an ETT connector.
